About this title

Synopsis

This is a balanced attempt to present risk-reward scenarios of leveraged buyouts. The leveraging of American Business is explored through case presentations of companies that have been purchased largely with debt. It shows what each transaction meant to the management of the company before and after the buyout and looks at potential returns to management if the business meets its projections. Events that led up to and actually sparked the buyout are examined.
